Zone reading these notes should first carefully
study the paragraph from the Holy Scriptures as
indicated abOve.l
SUBJECT: COPS COVENANT WITH ABRAM.
The last lesson gave account of the separation
of Abram and Lot. Lot jOurneyed east and
settled in the vicinity of SOdOm. (l3 IL, II J
Shortly after Lot left God visited Abram. On
special occasions, at grand turning-points in
life in emergencies aud doubts Abram was al
ways remembered of God. Doubtless the sepa-
ration made depression in the feelings of
Abram. Probably the pasturage about Bethel
was quite exhausted. God directed Abram TO
look about and choose for q new home the
choicest spot offered after Lots selection The
result was Abrams removal from Bethel to
Hebron, (V. 49, distance of about 81 miles,
Hebron being TO the south. From Hebron TO
SodOm was only about 30 miles, so that Abram
and Lot were quite near each other. Abram
and Sarai were ultimately buried ut Hebron.
Between the lesson for last week and that for
this we have account of the battle between the
forces of several Kings, resulting in the capture
of Lot and his household as prisoners OF war.
Chapter d. IL was no wonder one of Lots
servants should seek escape To hasten and in
form Abram of his uephews fate. We see the
executive power and brave spirit of Abram all
aroused He summoned such of his depend
ants as could carry arms, and succeeded in
mastering force of Sis men. With these he
set out 10 rescue Lot, He overlook the Kings
at Dan and followed them up to the vicinity of
Damascus, completely routing them, taking
from their clutches his nephew and household
and property. Singular enough, Lot ventured
TO make the region of SOdom his home even
after such peril and such lesson.
The episode involving Lots capture and res
cue had passed and affairs were proceeding as
usual, Lot living near Sodom and Abram at
Hebron, when God again appeared to Abram.
We have reason TO think several years have
passed since the separation OF Abram and Lot
at Bethel. We may say five years interviewed.
So Gods first interview with Abram at Hebron
can be fixed in the year 2092 A. NJ, or 1912 Is.
q. Abram was then 81 years old.
When God first called Abram at Ur and gave
him the land of Canaan for an inheritance,
(l5 ~ AbEam was 20 years of age. Fourteen
years passed and yet there was no heir. When
Abram was75 years old (l2: A. God visited him
at Haran III 81 IL: ~ and assured him he
should become great nation, l2; p but nine
years have since gone by, leaving Abram still
childless. Then, when Abram was 40 years old,
God told him at Bethel that his offspring would
be countless as the atoms of dust. (l3 I6
Compare Jer., 80 22.) Five years passed and
Abrams wife was still denied motherhood. In
deed the iaith OF Abram was put 10 very
